Figure 17.9
Phenotypic sex reversal in humans having two copies of the DAX1 locus. DAX1 (on the X chromosome) plus SRY (on the Y chromosome) produces testes. DAX1 without SRY (since the other DAX1 locus is on the inactive X chromosome) produces ovaries. Two active copies of DAX1 (on the active X chromosome) plus SRY (on the Y chromosome) lead to a poorly formed gonad. Since the gonad makes neither AMH nor testosterone, the phenotype is female. (After Genetics Review Group 1995.)
